Sustainable power redefined: meet the Jeep Avenger 4xe line-up
Building on the success of the model, the Jeep Avenger 4xe is set to become the new benchmark in the B-SUV segment, offering an exclusive design, top-tier performance, and embodying Jeep’s rich legacy of all-wheel drive. The Avenger 4xe is set to make history for Jeep with two soon-to-be iconic trims: Upland and the exclusive The North Face Edition. This model represents a significant leap in Jeep’s legendary capability. Both trims are equipped with a groundbreaking powertrain that establishes a new standard for lightweight design and driving enjoyment, seamlessly blending off-road performance with sustainable mobility.
The innovative powertrain of the Jeep Avenger 4xe seamlessly blends hybrid efficiency with cutting-edge AWD technology. At its core is a 48V hybrid system, featuring a powerful 1.2-liter turbo engine that generates 136 hp, paired with dual 21kW electric motors located at the front and rear. This configuration provides all-wheel drive and is coupled with a 6-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission, allowing the vehicle to drive in full electric mode at low speeds.
This setup ensures top-tier performance, with the Avenger 4xe achieving a maximum power output of 136 hp and a top speed of 194 km/h—10 km/h faster than the e-Hybrid version. It accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in just 9.5 seconds. The 4xe powertrain stands out as the most powerful in the Avenger hybrid lineup, offering 36 hp and 25 Nm more torque than the e-Hybrid FWD, which results in faster acceleration and a higher top speed, while maintaining only a slight increase in CO2 emissions. This balance of power and eco-friendliness is a hallmark of Jeep’s commitment to sustainability, allowing drivers to enjoy impressive performance without sacrificing environmental responsibility.
Beyond raw power, the Avenger 4xe’s capabilities are further enhanced by its superior off-road performance. It boasts improved off-road angles, an additional 10 mm of ground clearance, and a wading depth of up to 400 mm, making it more rugged and versatile than the front-wheel-drive model. The all-wheel-drive capability offers superior traction across diverse terrains, ensuring that the Avenger 4xe is ready for any adventure.
The Jeep Avenger 4xe is designed to conquer a wide range of terrains with ease and confidence, thanks to its robust features and advanced technology. Standard M+S tires provide reliable traction in various weather conditions, while optional All Terrain 3PMSF tires are available for those seeking enhanced grip on more challenging surfaces.
The Avenger 4xe boasts optimized off-road angles, including a 22° approach, 21° breakover, and 35° departure angles, coupled with a ground clearance of 210mm. These features, along with the increased water fording capacity, make the vehicle ideal for adventurers ready to explore the most rugged terrains. A key component of the Avenger 4xe’s power is the 22.7:1 reducer on the rear axle, delivering an extraordinary rear-wheel torque of 1,900 Nm, ensuring exceptional traction even on steep, challenging surfaces. The vehicle can handle slopes up to 40% on difficult terrain like gravel and maintain up to 20% traction when the front axle has little or no grip.
Equipped with an intelligent all-wheel-drive system, the Avenger 4xe ensures that 4×4 capabilities are readily available when needed. Depending on the drive mode selected, at low speeds (between -30 and +30 km/h), permanent traction on all four wheels is maintained with a 50:50 torque split. At medium speeds (30 to 90 km/h), the rear axle drive engages only when required, while at high speeds (above 90 km/h), the rear e-motor disengages from the axle to optimize fuel consumption.
